a number of the OS 9 bootable MDDs have 167mhz bus speeds and DDR RAM and ATA 100. Having a faster processor on a slow bus is limiting. Click to expand... None of the Prozesso…

why you want an os 9 only machine is beyond me but the last os 9 capabel machien apple offerd was the 2003 reintroduction of the 1,25 dual G4 MDD

I doubt very much that a single thin piece of metal can absorb and dissipate heat in any meaningful way to actually maintain or reduce temperatures. Larry Pina's Macintosh Repair &…

YES! *does a backflip* Thanks so much! Are you sure it'll be compatible with the extra PCI slot and all?

Yes. The 54xx/55xx boards and their 6xxxx counterparts are interchangeable.

My 5500/250's motherboard seems to be acting up. Thanks! -JRL

Even with the Mac 128K Apple was installing heat sinks to help pull heat away from the delicate electronics and radiate it into the case where convective air would then exhaust it.…

I've never heard that any particular, fairly modern, OS can't utilize dual/multiple processors. NEVER believe (without checking multiple reliable sources) what you've "read at diff…

Sonnet lists an upgrade for the Mirrored Drive Door. Click to expand... Yes, but the 2nd processor can´t be used by OS 9. That´s what I read at different places. It will fit, i…

Sonnet lists an upgrade for the Mirrored Drive Door. The higher Buss speed will make a difference plus faster RAM AGP slot etc. Click to expand... DA, QS and MDD all have 4x AG…

I think 10 NiMh AAA batteries (the small ones) might work, but have not tried it — this project is still to come, some dark winter's night. Ten regular AA "button" batteries will n…

QS2002 can use HDDs larger than 128GB on the internal PATA buses.. but that is about it as far as I know and it does not do you much good if you want SATA or SCSI RAID.

I´d like you to help with your great experiance to virtually assemble the fastest OS 9 machine ever. Interresting is to clear some questions regarding the most powerful possibiliti…

Not really, because you are just gluing the very edge of the tape to the very edge of the PCB. You would not be gluing onto any of the traces or pins.

The 5xx series PS does get good and toasty in my experience. Not sure about the ram, as I have never checked. I can't see what effect a ram disk would have on its operating tempera…

but if i glue it i might as wel scratch out the circuit paths

take a breather and google up some doc's meantime I had a 8500 that was a nasty thing to get started, but once it did it was fine after you read up abit on how its pieced togethe…

It may have been damaged before. Please refrain from your nastiness, it is not necessary. I use the quote button because I believe quoting is necessary. xx(

I meant use the User Reports database to search for examples of 533s in Gigabits so you can see if anyone's succeeded and what the hurdles involved are.
